Dearth? Maybe... They walloped a punch when the little girl and her foster mom called the white male lead a coward at the beginning of the film. Totally uncalled for and another sh*t on white man pandering.
It’s highly amusing when in a conversation about a silly monster movie the idea of fairness and accountability (pejoratively called „wokeness“) are criticized as spoiling one’s pleasure.

Most people - normal people - just want to be entertained and not be subjected to a Maoist struggle session. Imagine that.

Setting up a false equivalency, virtue signaling while simultaneously lecturing. Trifecta!

Hahaha! Probably my favorite reply in Commando, and there are many, many, many great ones in that film.

Well I was offended. I was offended that Skarsgård didn't take off his shirt at least once.

I spent one sentence on the topic and my entire movie review on the other side of the board doesn't even mention the woke. Seems the woke are more outraged when you call them out.
And I went out of my way to mention that there was a "dearth"of woke, and yet the delicately patterned, solid phase of water entities inevitably melted as reliably as summer follows spring.

I liked it. Saw it in a theater because I'm not quivering in fear. The score was bleh business as normal. Awesome monkey on reptilian action! Aside from hammering on the conspiracy vibe with the whistler blower dude, and making the robozilla guys the illuminaughty villains (not like that's even unusual) I didn't see any woke issues. Oh, maybe the fact the monster stompled HK but not the mainland, probably is just to appease the money sources. Woke- lol I have a long history with this board, and I can't even keep track of the offended people and flame wars over the years. It doesn't matter what it is, someone will find a need to issue an angry rebuke, or taunting ego stroke to themselves meant to draw others in to a neverending circl-- soap opera. The difference today is you can get cancelled, banned, doxxed and more if you're on the wrong side of the political spectrum, or worse if you're not on any of the spectrums.

Aside from completely losing the China business if they stomp the mainland, I don't think China would even give them the permit to shoot there after reviewing the script.

I think part of the issue might be how you start out your post by passively implying that people who are staying safe and not going to the theater are "quivering in fear." It's not really relevant to a discussion about scores or movies, but more just an attempt to get a dig at people who may be following the advice of professionals and local guidelines.

Pivoting from the "woke" narrative to the "official narrative" narrative.
